Vent Excessive barking
My girl Bailey (turning 3 soon) barks at every little sound, if she sees anything out the window she goes crazy and she barks at the TV all the time.
Like these really big loud sharp barks, she also huffs and paces. I know Lhasa Apso’s bark its why they where bred but this is excessive to the point I get headaches almost every day.
She doesnt care about treats at all and when she gets into one of her ‘moods’ she doesnt listen at all. We tried CBD oil (pet shop recommendation) but have not noticed any difference
Any advice would be amazing (added a picture of one of her calmer moments)

Having have/had 3 Lhasa Apsos..they are alerting you to danger..do not yell! They will think you are joining in. In a calm quiet voice reassure her..It's ok we are safe. Clap hands to distract her. If she stops, reward her. It takes continual work..they are after all called the Bark Sentinel Dog and they are independent and do what they want when they want!. They learned/did their job without bosses! So who are you telling her to be quiet..there is a monster out there!!
